    TV mount Mister Ben installed.
    Avi B.

    Mister Ben is very nice, an efficient worker, and intuitively knowledgeable. We hired him to install a TV mount and fix our bathroom door, and he had both done within an hour and a half.

    After 40 years in the apartment renovation biz, I know a good contractor when I see one. On time, easy to reach, plenty of the right tools for the job, and the expertise to see it to completion, is just the start. Appliance repair can be tricky but he handles it very competently. His real forte is locksmith, so he is on my list for that too! I can tell you after all those years, fastidiousness is unexpected in the trades. The usual is to get the job done fast and let others clean up your mess. Not with Ben! What's also worth every penny is his experience, diligence, physical agility, and problem solving. A contractor worth his weight in spam has to think on their feet and be physically flexible to get into awkward spaces. If you have an appliance that is about 20 years old, KEEP IT! Why? Because that era's quality is unbeaten by today's programmed obsolescence and plastic parts. Attached is pic of my Kenmore clothes dryer. It may be a brontosaurus but it is still munching along and the best of its era. You can trust Ben to get it done right and be tidy at the same time! ~ErgonomicsDr

    I can't recommend Antonio highly enough. I called him on a Sunday morning after dealing with a…read morecomplicated door that was completely jammed, and he responded right away. He showed up promptly, quickly diagnosed the problem, and was able to fix what turned out to be a much more complicated issue than I expected. What really stood out was his professionalism and honesty. He was upfront about the pricing before starting the work, there were no surprises, and his rates were very competitive. It's refreshing to find someone who's both highly skilled and completely transparent. If you're looking for a reliable locksmith who's responsive, professional, reasonably priced, and genuinely knows what he's doing, Antonio is the person to call. I'll definitely use him again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.

    Misleading Pricing, Inflated Quotes, and Property Damage: Avoid This Locksmith at any cost…read more We chose this company because they were listed as Yelp Guaranteed, and we trusted that this designation meant the business had been vetted and was reliable. Unfortunately, our experience was the complete opposite. Antonio initially provided a price range of $55-$120. Before booking, I spoke with Antonio directly and confirmed multiple times that $120 was the absolute maximum we would pay. I also asked what would determine whether the service was $55 versus $120. Antonio explained that using a tool to unlock the door from underneath would be on the lower end, while picking the lock would cost more. After the service, Antonio denied ever providing this information. We were told a technician would arrive within 20 minutes. Instead, we waited outside for over an hour while repeatedly being told the technician was "5 minutes away" despite continued delays for over an hour. When technician David arrived, he claimed our lock was a "commercial lock" and immediately quoted us $480, despite the maximum price we had confirmed with Antonio. When we asked why it was so much higher, he refused to explain. When we said we would call another locksmith, the price suddenly dropped multiple times: from $480 to $350, then $300, and finally $200. The fact that the price changed so dramatically simply by pushing back raised serious concerns about the legitimacy of the original quote. David ultimately unlocked the door using a simple long-reach tool under the door, not any complex lock-picking process and not anything to do with the "commercial lock" he was claiming, and left black marks and damage on the wall next to the door. When I contacted Antonio afterward about the issue, he initially claimed we had contacted the wrong company and asked us to call him. However, once on the phone, he immediately knew who we were and began discussing our complaint, contradicting his earlier statement. We are currently working with Yelp Guarantee to request a refund and reimbursement for the property damage caused during this service. Do not hire this company especially based on their lower end quote - there are many other companies that provided flat fees. If you've hired this company for whatever reason: 1. **Do not be afraid to say you will call someone else.** The price dropped significantly the second we pushed back. 2. **Get all pricing details in writing.** We confirmed the maximum price and pricing factors beforehand, but those statements were later denied. 3. **Pay by credit card if possible.** This gives you options if the service does not match what was represented.
